We’re getting closer and closer to a NEW ride in Disney World!
“Tonight Only: A Celebration of Family and Friends of New Orleans at the Proud Home of Princess Tiana and Prince Naveen! Everone Is Welcome!”
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure has been under construction in Magic Kingdom since early 2023, but it’s set to open in just a few short weeks. We’ve been watching the ride closely for any updates and news, and during a recent visit, we took a very close notice of the ride vehicles!
People love to argue that EPCOT is THE Disney World park for foodies, and with dozens of restaurants, they may be right!
EPCOT
When you step into the Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow, you have your choice of cuisine from countries around the world, in snack, quick service, or sit-down restaurant form — you could try an entire smorgasbord of international eats. But should you choose an AMERICAN restaurant instead? Let’s find out — I’m taking you along on my latest dining review!
If you’ve been going to the Disney parks for a while, you know that refurbishments happen frequently!
Disneyland Park
It’s not uncommon to have a few rides closed for short periods while they get technical updates or to see a building covered in construction walls while the paint gets touched up. It’s how they keep things fresh and new! But now, we’ve got an update about a closed store…and it might not be good news if you’re a big fan.
It can be SO hard to choose what shows to watch these days!

With the variety of streaming services out there, it’s easy to get overwhelmed with all the movie and TV show options. And coming soon, Disney is changing up some of its offerings…so here’s what you need to know!
There’s a tiny town filled with chaos in Disney World, and we’re keeping it in check!
Wild things are going on!
If you’ve been hanging around here at DFB recently, then you’ve probably seen our posts about all the shenanigans going on in the tiny train village in EPCOT’s Germany Pavilion. This itty bitty city has suffered everything from werewolf attacks to giant lizards to mass murders. It’s anarchy! But we simply can’t stay away…so come with us to see what happened this week.
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park has made some big changes recently, specifically when it comes to characters!
Animal Kingdom
Russell and Dug from Up recently got their old meet-and-greet back in Discovery Island, and just a few days ago, Pocahontas, Goofy, and Pluto started meeting in the park again as well. However, with the return of all these character meet and greets, we’ve been mourning the loss of the old character flotillas that sailed the Discovery River. Because of all these changes, Animal Kingdom had to update its park map for the first time in over a YEAR!
We’re about to get a NEW ride in Magic Kingdom!

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure has been under construction for a while now, taking over the old home of Splash Mountain, and the opening date for the new ride is looming closer! We’ve been eager to check it out with the new animatronics, new storyline, and fun details, but before it opens, we’ve got some important details to share.
If there’s ONE accessory we recommend you bring to Disney World, it’s a water bottle!
Water bottles for days!
Water bottles can be an absolute lifesaver in the parks, especially in the summer. Sure, you can get free cups of ice water at quick service restaurants, but you don’t want to keep stopping to get those when you can just fill up your bottle and go! That’s why we’re rounding up our picks for the BEST water bottles for Disney World. Let’s dive in.
It’s no secret that some of the best restaurants in Disney World are NOT in the parks!
The Polynesian Village Resort
There are several restaurants run by James Beard Award-winning chefs in Disney Springs, and many of the dining locations at the hotels are absolutely spectacular. Recently, I got the chance to visit one of those beloved Disney World hotel restaurants, but not for the meal you’d think! And now, I’m bringing you my full review.
